The public procurement process for the refurbishment of the Threefield Play Area has been completed, with Southampton City Council acting as the buying authority. The project, titled "Threefield Play Area refurbishment," falls under the industry category of Recreation Installation (CPV code: 45212140). Located in Southampton, the refurbishment is valued at £69,521.02 GBP. This contract progressed to the award stage, with Kompan Ltd selected as the supplier following a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement.
